I just want to know if these rims could fit on a fox with 95 spindles. I know they have a back spacing of 6.12. Also I heard they will stick out in the front, is this true?

it isn't likely to just "bolt up and go", but can be made to work. the rim will rub the factory a-arm at full lock so you'll need steering limiters (or just make the conscious effort not to turn all the way) or some clearancing via modification/replacement.

depending on your suspension/tire setup you'll also need to roll the fender lips/clearance the fender liners.

My biggest concern also is if the tire will rub against the strut. I believe i have enough clearence with the arms because I have tubular ones. Thakn for the advice.

oops, i didn't check your sig. the tubular a-arms should have ample clearance. i don't foresee any issues with the strut either, but that may depend on other suspension mods as well. anyhow, seems to me like you'll only need to worry about clearance at the fender-lips. let me know how it works out as i want these rims on my coupe
